this species is included in Maggs & Hommersand 1993, but is not included in the list shown under Polysiphonia.. It is included in other references - Hardy & Guiry 2003.

Any advice?Osborne 20:54, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

My advice would be to provide full citations: Title, author, journal or publisher, publication date, page numbers... I don't think it's reasonably easy for our readers to figure out what "Harvey in W.J. Hooker" might be. Is that some reference? The naming authority? That seems entirely unclear to me, but if that isn't a reference, the article cites none. When we have reliable sources discussing Polysiphonia elongella in some detail, we may be able to figure out whether it's included in the list at Polysiphonia under some alternative name or whether that list is incomplete.
